  • Container glass plays a pivotal role in packaging a diverse range of beverages, from beers and wines to spirits, liqueurs, and soft drinks. Beyond the beverage realm, these glass containers are also utilized for packaging dry powders, granules, and various liquids. Notably, certain beverages, like carbonated drinks, are stored under pressure, while others may undergo heat sterilization.
  • Chile's pharmaceutical industry serves as a catalyst, positively influencing various sectors of the economy. A significant advantage for foreign pharmaceutical companies eyeing Chile as an investment hub is the country's extensive network of free trade agreements. These agreements not only bolster exports but also empower companies to meet the regional and global demand for pharmaceutical products.
  • Data from UN Comtrade and Servicio Nacional de Aduanas reveals that in 2023, Chile's pharmaceutical exports surpassed USD 205 million. The primary destinations for these exports included Ecuador, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, and Spain. Given that the pharmaceutical sector favors glass for its chemical stability and non-reactivity—ensuring the preservation of sensitive drugs—the robust export figures underscore a strong demand for glass bottles and containers. This demand is crucial for the safe transportation and distribution of pharmaceuticals in the market.
  • Chile is an active participant in global trade. As reported by the International Trade Center, Chile exported 112,364 tons of container glass products in 2023. This marked a decline from the 138,256 tons exported in 2022, highlighting a domestic demand for container glass from end-user industries.
  • Despite these trends, 2023 posed challenges for Chile, with an economic slowdown and political uncertainties making companies and end-users more cautious in their spending. This caution could partially hinder the industry's growth.
  • In a bid to champion environmental sustainability, the Chilean government is rolling out policies that not only promote recycling but also aim to curtail plastic usage. Such initiatives could further bolster the glass bottle and container market, especially as businesses and consumers pivot towards sustainable practices. A testament to this shift: in 2023, Cristalerias de Chile, a leading container glass manufacturer, announced that their glass containers were crafted from 41% recycled glass, sourced from their Padre Hurtado Plant after a process of destruction and recovery.
